I am a Certified Practitioner using the researched backed body-mind modaility EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) aka 'Tapping'. I struggled with chronic insomnia for many years and nothing I tried worked. I didn't know then about the key role my nervous system was playing. When your nervous system is primed to being in a heightened state it becomes increasingly sensitive overtime making it increas
ingly harder to sleep and more easy to trigger into anxiety, depression, panic attacks. There are different pathways to your nervous system being in a more reactive, heightened, over sensitive state but, regardless, it can be stabilised. The reason why it gets harder and harder to relax and sleep is because there are actual physical changes that happen in your body. Once that happens it is easy to get trapped in an ongoing cycle of struggling with sleep, anxiety/depression. Your mental, emotional, and behavioural patterns can build up further entrenching the problem. The good news is we can calm it all down and then address what got you there in the first place (-:
